New Year, New Plans

Happy New Year! Vicky blogging today. First up is a card I made to MYSELF, using the January Helmar Challenge as inspiration. I used a beautiful paper from Meg's Garden "The Spring Paisley" collection and I attached a transparency butterfly with clear Zapdots and some pretty flowers with the 450 quick dry.

This is the challenge this month and I chose a peachy orange and teal blue. My list is actually inside the card and with an extremely personal top 5 things I need to work on. I plan to keep this card sitting on my home desk to remind me each day of the important life goals I have set for myself.

Up next is a layout using the newest Pion Design collection "Play Time" and the January Once Upon a Sketch challenge. I find pink the easiest color to scrap and this collection is just so cute. The journaling on the back of this layout reads:
I have a wonderful life but am looking to you to point me in the right direction to find my inner child this year and make time for more fun... to create more wonderful memories, love Mom, xoxo (January 2013).

This project was made using a lot of Helmar goodness. I used the premium craft glue on the paper layers, the 450 quick dry on the flowers, the adhesive runner for the photo and the acid-free glue for the chipboard.
